Gene Steinberg, the Night Owl himself is a best-selling technology author and columnist. Mr. Steinberg always has thought-provoking viewpoints about the technology universe, from the always-fascinating happenings at Apple Inc. to consumer electronics, innovative products and overall trends in the tech industry.

Each week, Mr. Steinberg speaks directly to the industry's movers and shakers, including corporate leaders, industry analysts, and discussion panels that feature many of the most respected tech journalists.

On this week's all-star episode, Mr. Steinberg explored, with Mr. Martellaro, the common sense reasons behind Apple's earnings miss, how Wall Street has overreacted, and why some so-called industry analysts and tech commentators have totally misunderstood Apple's real sales and prospects. You'll also discover the latest possibilities about the next Mac Pro -- a beautiful design concept proposed by Peter Zigich in Canada -- and where Apple's TV initiative might go.

This week's guests also included Peter Cohen, a co-host of the "Angry Mac Bastards" radio show and Executive Editor for The Loop. Also on the show was Michael Prospero, Reviews Editor for Laptop Magazine, to discuss some of the notable products he and his crew have tested over the past year, along with ongoing speculation that Apple has a smart TV coming next year.
